RE: [Harp-L] Gussow and o/bs



Sean, 

I haven't listened to the show you're referencing, but I know Adam
played a lot of overblows on his old Satan & Adam stuff.  Take a look at
Thunky Fing, for example, which uses the 5 hole overblow to do a little
major/minor third action in a very funky lick that originated from the
Sanford & Son theme.  

Don't know what his set up was on that gig, but I know in the past he's
played through a Premier Twin 8, which prompted me to go out and get one
myself.  I would highly recommend this amp, and reiterate Adam's
comments in AHN that the 8-inch speakers "kick terrifying @$$."

Lastly, I have read and re-read Satan's Apprentice more times than I
care to admit, and I recommend it to all of my friends.  I'd guess that
I've purchased a dozen or more copies for myself and friends over the
years.  I consider it one of my favorite books in the world.  There is a
lot of harp content, albeit not in the technical sense.  It's more about
the life of a musician, development of personal style, issues about
being a white blues musician, romantic heartbreak, and so on.  So while
it won't teach you to overblow, it is a great book, and one I cannot
recommend highly enough.

Hi all,
have been listening to the Philly gig where J.R and A.G get it on which
was kindly recorded and made available by a fellow lister(i think Gary
H.) ,thanks sincerely.
What a performance ,wish I could have been there!
My question is this ,I know A.G is cited by Jason as being instrumental
in getting him turned onto o/b /o/ds,but listening to his masterful
playing on this particular show,Im not sure just how extensively ,if at
all ,he is employing these tecniques (A.G that is) could anyone
enlighten me on this point.?
Also does anybody know what kind of set-up he was using,great sound if
somewhat clean(no criticism here).
lastly ,anybody read his book "Satan's Apprentice"? Much harp content?
Ta in advance.
Sean.
